I'm also affected by compiz memory problems. Upgraded Ubuntu from 10.10 to 11.04 last monday.
After almost 2 days uptime, memory usage is :

$ ps auxw |grep compiz
ms 1593 2.6 23.0 1745332 933976 ? Sl May02 73:04 compiz

Ouch!!

$ lspci |grep -i nvid
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98M [Quadro NVS 160M] (rev a1)

I will provide any system information or perform any tests nescessary for you to fix this.
Cheers mates.
